Highly regarded for being the original and best performing directional spreader bar on the market, the Sterling Tackle 18in Tracker Bar w/ 9in Machines will increase the width of your spread and ensure all positions are covered. Built on a .125 inch diameter high grade titanium bar, these pre-rigged spreader bars are tested and proven to catch pelagics like tuna, dolphin, billfish, and more. Fitted under the lead bird is a plexiglass keel that causes the bar to track as much as 30 ft. outward from its normal tracking line. This feature allows the bar to run in a more visible location in the clean water outside the prop wash. The use of both a port and starboard side wide tracker bar can potentially increase the overall width of your spread by as much as 60 ft. whether you’re putting them from an outrigger or directly from the rod tip. The center and wing lines are loaded with a total of seven 9 inch machine lures to simulate schooling bait skittering across the surface. Inside the bottom teaser is a 400lb stainless bearing swivel used to attach the 9in Mini-Machine Stinger rigged on a 9/0 5x strong knife edge big game hook. The center line is rigged with 250lb smoke blue Momoi monofilament, while the wing lines are rigged with 130lb. Loop protectors are used on all critical connection points. Each spreader bar comes with its on clear vinyl/mesh lure bag for easy storage and wash down.
